yeah i caught that first one. mike to walt in the bar. there were a lot of callbacks like that painting and the towel dispenser.

it's weird the show is gonna have 3 episodes that seem like finales. last season's, tonight's, and next year's. that whole episode was like the movin on up type montage you get in these rise and fall movies.

the name of the episode is the title of a walt whitman poem that readsGliding Over AllGLIDING o'er all, through all,Through Nature, Time, and Space,As a ship on the waters advancing,The voyage of the soul--not life alone,Death, many deaths I'll sing.

might be referencing the painting that has popped up 3 times already and Walt recognizes while in the room with todd's unclemaybe that's why we see Walt alone on his 52nd birthday??

who else was holding their breath for basically that whole second to last scene at the pool?

i dunno.... walt's been making some questionable decisions, but he has not been careless. he's still been thinking everything through (except shooting mike... maybe - seems like he always had that plan in his back pocket)

I also think it's entirely possible that Walt had no idea that message from Gale was even in there. It could've just been something that Walt had that he never really paid attention to.

that's possible. i'll go with that i guess. it just seems that after Gale died (at that point in the story), Walt would have gotten rid of anything/everything linked back to him.

there was that one scene in the first episode of the season when walts cleaning up. he sits down to have a drink, then realizes he forgot to get rid of the Lilly of the valley plant. i guess this shows that things can slip his mind momentarily?.... but he still realized it and cleaned it up.

Certain Walt's cancer is back. After the MRI you see the aftermath of him punching the towel dispenser in frustration, getting out of the game to refocus on the fam. This might be a bit of the stretch, but the appearance of the fly at the beginning of the episode may have been a reference to the bottle episode in season 3 where Walt references seeing a fly as he nears the end of his life, which is further emphasized by the camera focusing on the fly chart.

one thing i didn't like about the episode: showing hank flash back to that convo last season about the book. the note in the book and hank's face was enough. even last season showing us the lily of the valley was too much i thought. you know it's walt when he takes that sigh of relief after jesse leaves and he knows brock is okay.

Walter punched that towel dispenser in season 2 when his oncologist told him and his family that his tumor had shrunk by 80%. He goes to the bathroom afterwards to wash his face and hands, then punches the towel dispenser. He sees in last night's episode that they haven't replaced it.

1.) He could go after Walt, exposing himself to the ridicule of everybody around him. He essentially got played by his own fam and his career will be forever tainted.2.) Or he wouldn't risk his career. After all, he hates not working.

I think he'll walk back out there like nothing happened and figure out what his next move is. I think that scene in the backyard last night is probably the last time we'll see them all together.

i'm the best mayne, i deed it

Ive seen a couple different takes on how it will end next season one of them being W.W. being Walter White or Walt Whitman. Walt Whitman died of a lung disease possibly hinting at Walt's cancer returning and from the opening scene of season 5 where Walt is on the run he is sick again.

Another idea was the painting that Walt keeps seeing is of a man being sent off to sea and a woman with two kids wing goodbye to him. This was possibly foreshadowing of Walt having to leave his family to go on the run from the DEA.

Also there was an interesting idea about the color pink representing death http://www.uproxx.com/tv/2012/08/breaking-bad-allusions/3/
